Installing a PCMCIA Flash Card

The X-Pedition will boot up and the following messages will appear, indicating that the PCMCIA flash card was installed successfully:

%SYS-I-FLASHCRD, Mounting 32MB Flash card %SYS-I-FLASHMNTD, 32MB Flash card mounted

The X-Pedition will start to boot up but stop after a few seconds, leaving the router in boot mode. If the X-Pedition displays the “external flash card absent” message, the PCMCIA flash card was not found and an image was not loaded. If this occurs, power off the X-Pedition and verify that the PCMCIA flash card is properly installed (refer to steps 2 and

3). Power on the router—if the problem persists, contact Enterasys Technical Support (see Technical Support on page 125).

The X-Pedition will start to boot up but stop after a few seconds, leaving the router in boot mode. If the X-Pedition does not display the “external flash card absent” message, the

router did not find an image to load from the PCMCIA Flash Card. Please contact Enterasys Technical Support for assistance (see Technical Support on page 125).

Note: If you boot from a TFTP server and the system does not detect a PCMCIA card, the “external flash card absent” message will appear. As the system firmware boots, the %SYS-E-NOFLASHCARD message will also appear, indicating that the PCMCIA card is not present or is not installed correctly. If this occurs, power off the X-Pedition and verify that the PCMCIA flash card is properly installed (refer to steps 2 and 3). Power on the

router—if the problem persists, contact Enterasys Technical Support (see Technical Support on page 125).
